This week, Eye on Travel broadcasts from the Peninsula Beverly Hills in Beverly Hills, California. Joining Peter is Travel Weekly’s Arnie Weissmann with a report on the government shutdown and how it’s affecting passengers, airports, airlines, and  air traffic controllers. The Wall Street Journal’s Scott McCartney explains why we may be lucky that the government shutdown is happening in January, and he also shares his airline rankings for 2019. Phil Savenick, President of the Beverly Hills Historical Society, talks about the surprising beginnings of Beverly Hills (yes, the legends and unlikely events include cowboys and Indians). And Julian Gold, the Mayor of Beverly Hills, talks population growth, development and change in his charmed and high-end enclave. There’s all this and more as Eye on Travel  broadcasts from the Peninsula Beverly Hills in Beverly Hills, California.
